Netflix has done a deal with Starz Entertainment, immediately adding 1,000 titles to Netflix’s streaming service, with 1,500 more to follow in the coming weeks. Following on Netflix’s deals with Disney and CBS to stream current and back episodes of TV content, this is a solid step towards increasing the relevance of their streaming service. The largest drawback to the service to date has been the dearth of first tier content.

I am very amused that the Amazon product code for the Celine Dion BD is ‘B000YEUUCK’. I really have to wonder if that’s random, or if someone in the bowels of Amazon is letting us know what they think of Celine Dion.
